The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A gentle, first-person escape room that feels like quietly working through brain teasers in a calm, mysterious space.

What players say

Players are split on this cozy escape room series. Many warn the lighting is so poor that objects are invisible, and puzzles often rely on frustrating leaps of logic or trial and error. Others appreciate the chill atmosphere and straightforward puzzles, though several note development stalled, with a promised hotel level never released.
